Personally, I'd get something more modern. Power aside, the better brakes, suspension and handling characteristics of a modern bike would be more useful to a beginner. I'd get a standard style bike. I like to recommend the Suzuki Bandits, as they are cheap and reliable, plus a lot of fun. You can pick either a 600cc or 1200cc version. ABS is available, if you want it. A small fairing, or none, as you wish.
Other brands have similar bikes. Plus, you can throw bags on anything, if you want. Hard, or soft, there are a million choices out there.
